Simons, of this city, was discharged 1n city court this morning on a charge of reckless driv. ing, by Deputy Judge B. W.

Bigge and his wife testified timmt Simons crowded them clear over into the gutter and they had a lantern.

They also stated that Si- mons told them he was talking to his companien while driving and did not see tha team. “There is carelessness and possibly negligence, but no recklessness,” said Judge Alling in discnarging Simons.
